The Criterion for Determining the Value of Lost Property

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks about the minimum amount for lost property, and whether ten or twenty riyals, for example, are considered such, and what is the criterion for lost property?

Answer:
The criterion is what the ambition of the middle class of people follows. So, that is lost property. And what is lower than that, such as a date or a short rope, is not lost property; it belongs to the one who finds it. Yes.
